But who wants a cooked pickle? ;-)

My ethnic Russian daughter-in-law, just arrived from Tatarstan, made a
Russian soup, into which she chopped several dill pickles.

Wonderful stuff!

You must have to cook the bejabbers out of them - I chopped up a dill
pickle once into a stew I was concocting from leftovers ane expired stuff
in the pantry, and it was kind unnerving every time I bit into a pickle
chunk. Or maybe I didn't chop them finely enough. (more like I "cubed"
them.) My Mom [RIP] used to put weiners and sweet pickles through the meat
grinder. Simultaneously. I refused to even taste the stuff. ;-)

Thanks!
